Scanned photo from my visit in September 2001.

Asiatic Lion exhibit.
I still maintain they could improve this exhibit vastly without having to build afresh- fill in the pointless watermoat to give the Lions double the land space, put in big windows to view through, and landscape it by adding big boulders and a sandy substrate to make it resemble Gir- the Indian dry Forest where the Lions naturally live. Not too difficult and would get rid of that 'dank' feel the enclosure has.

Totally agree. Its not bad but it could be improved easily-hopeuflly this will occur when the new tiger enclosure is built.
